Globe feature request: Download descriptors for bridges

I know this is a pretty hefty feature request, but during the past two months of curating the TBB bridges, I have multiple times wished that such a feature was available.

I'm asking for functionality, where if you visit a bridge (or relay) page: https://globe.torproject.org/#/bridge/FBD4950C1ACEE99E73A24AB2A6341A85A88ACB7B you could click a button and download the last (sanitized) descriptor of that bridge, or the last extra-info descriptor. Even better, have the choice to download the last week worth of descriptors, etc.

This would be immensely useful during my investigations of "Which bridge doesn't have ExtORPort enabled" and "Why do metrics graphs look like they do". It would also be useful in the guard node analysis project, and other research projects.

On the negative side, since Globe relies on onionoo to get its data (and onionoo doesn't provide descriptors AFAIK), it might not be easy to implement this feature. However, a ticket is never a bad idea, right? :)

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
